R&D Support Groups

You are buried in samples and your customers are screaming for data.  Samples are being submitted in containers with no bar codes accompanied by hastily completed paper forms.  There is no central repository for analytical, micro or sensory data – so after you complete the work, you write the results on the paper form and send it back to your customer.

After a few years you realize that the same stability, micro, analytical and sensory problems keep repeating over and over again within the company.  You recognize that the various product development groups that you support are dealing with many common issues, but there are no systems in place where they can access the data you generated over the last few years, and then relate it to the composition of their formulations.  You have probably generated relevant data on a similar formulation, but it can’t be accessed because it’s buried in a file cabinet somewhere in the building.

So the samples keep coming – and your frustration level grows along with your sample backlog.  You know that the situation outlined above is happening over and over again and is hurting the entire organization.  You know that something has to change; however, the urgent samples keep coming and there is never time to design and build the information systems that will create the unified knowledge repository that the organization needs.  Specifically, an advanced knowledge repository where users can do formula searches based on specific raw materials and levels and then quickly access the corresponding analytical, micro or sensory results or alternately, where users can search the test results and then access the corresponding formula compositions.
